Summary
Caitlyn Kiramman transfers to a new precinct looking for a clean slate: quiet cases, minimal drama, and absolutely no emotional entanglements.
What she gets instead is Violet.
Her ex. Her messy, infuriating, still-somehow-irresistible ex.
And worse? They’re partners now.Officially, the documentary crew is here to capture the daily workings of Precinct 47. Unofficially, they’ve stumbled onto something far more compelling: two detectives solving petty crimes while expertly failing to hide that they’re definitely not over each other.
[Interview - Vi, hands behind head, feet on desk]
“We’re just coworkers. Partners, sure. Like, assigned. Randomly. Not because fate or anything. Obviously.”
(beat)
“Did she mention me? Like… fondly?”[Interview – Caitlyn, staring directly at the camera]
“We’re focused on the job. That’s all.
…What do you mean, ‘my voice softens when I say her name’?”
(long pause)
“No comment.”

Summary
Fanfiction en Español.
Una serie de asesinatos sacude la ciudad: cuerpos encontrados en posiciones casi artísticas, con cartas del tarot clavadas en el pecho y pequeñas estatuillas de piedra al pie de cada escena. No hay pistas claras. No hay huellas. Solo símbolos que parecen hablar en un idioma que nadie entiende.
Lan Xichen y Jiang Cheng lideran la investigación, pero lo que debería ser una colaboración profesional pronto se vuelve una prueba emocional. Porque entre ellos hay algo más que respeto: hay heridas sin cerrar, palabras no dichas y un afecto que ambos callaron por demasiado tiempo.
En medio de un juego macabro, los dos deben descubrir quién está detrás de los crímenes. Pero, ¿podrán salvarse a sí mismos antes de que sea demasiado tarde?

Summary
Detective Ryu Sun Jae is brilliant, methodical, and devoted to his work—maybe too devoted, according to his partner who keeps suggesting he needs a life outside the precinct. Criminal psychologist Dr. Im Sol is sharp, empathetic, and carefully selective about the cases she takes—three years ago, something broke her, and she's been rebuilding herself ever since.
What starts as professional respect evolves into something neither of them is quite ready to name—complicated by shared trauma, protective friends, relentless colleagues, and the reality that falling for someone means risking the kind of pain they've both spent years trying to avoid.
"I choose the cases I help with," she tells him. "The cases I get my hands and heart on."
He's starting to realize he wants to be one of those cases—the one she chooses, the one she gets her heart on.
A slow-burn romance where two people haunted by guilt learn that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is let someone in.

Summary
The Brigadier first met the individual known as “The Doctor” five years ago. Though he still is largely uncertain of who he is, or from where he has come, there are two things he does know.
1. That he has no mystical abilities whatsoever.
2. That he, the Brigadier, will do anything in his power to stop him.
Or in other words, UNIT thinks the Doctor is an alien who keeps abducting people, even though he's just going about his usual business, and his companions are perfectly happy to travel with him. The Brigadier keeps tracking him down, but never seems to succeed in catching him. Eventually they realize that this whole thing was just one big misunderstanding. Eventually.

Summary
The first body Itadori Yuuji ever sees as a rookie homicide detective is already cooling in a Shibuya alley when he ducks under the tape. He’s supposed to be learning how not to contaminate a crime scene; instead he finds himself assigned to Fushiguro Megumi, a permanently sleep-deprived detective with an emotional support scowl, and dragged into Gojo Satoru’s chaotic little corner of the Shibuya Homicide Unit.
As a string of neatly executed salaryman murders closes in around them, Yuuji tries to prove he belongs in a world of blood, paperwork, and bad coffee—while his overprotective not-quite-brother Chousou watches uneasily from the edges of the law.
Across the river, Getou Suguru is building something out of middlemen and dead accountants, watching the news and the man he used to stand beside. Six years after everything between them shattered, Gojo and Geto find themselves on opposite sides of the same case again—this time with new kids caught in the crossfire.

Summary
Narcissa looks down at her hands. The blood is splattered over them, like a crimson pair of gloves. It’s not a jarring sight- she’s often more surprised to see clean, pale skin when she looks down. She can always feel the ever-running blood, slowly trickling down them, to matter how many times she tries to scrub them clean.
You should feel guilty.
No. Narcissa can’t think about that now. Not the person who said those words. And she’s not guilty, not really. She’s done what she had to do to survive. Sometimes, that’s making sure other people don’t.

Summary
Commissioner Tsukauchi had taken pity on him, in a way, letting him stay on the force long enough to see this mission through, and he wouldn’t let him down. He wouldn’t accept another failure.
Still, recognizing the cruciality of time and the invaluableness of having someone capable running point on the ground in a way Yagi could no longer, the Commissioner had affixed the postponement of leave with one enormous and frustrating condition: Detective Yagi was required to call in the assistance of a private consultant, an undercover-cop-turned-PI, an underground expert on All for One operations - and quite possibly the most infuriating person known to man.
Enter Aizawa.
